Jeremiah 32–37 | Call Unto Me, and I Will Answer Thee

In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 32 through 37 from the King James Version.Jerusalem is under siege, Jeremiah is confined, and the fall of Judah seems unavoidable. Yet in the midst of these dark circumstances, God tells Jeremiah to purchase a field—a remarkable act of faith pointing toward a future when homes, fields, and vineyards will once again be possessed in the land.These chapters contain some of Jeremiah’s most reassuring promises. “Call unto me, and I will answer thee,” says the Lord. He promises healing, forgiveness, restoration, an everlasting covenant, and the coming of a righteous Branch from the line of David.We also meet the faithful Rechabites, witness King Jehoiakim’s attempt to destroy Jeremiah’s written prophecy, and see the prophet continue speaking God’s word despite rejection and imprisonment.So settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as today’s reading reminds us that even when circumstances seem beyond repair, nothing is too hard for the Lord and His purposes cannot be silenced.Highlighted VersesJeremiah 32:17“Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee.”Jeremiah 32:27“Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?”Jeremiah 32:40“And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good.”Jeremiah 33:3“Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.”Jeremiah 33:6“Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.”Jeremiah 33:8“And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me.”Jeremiah 33:11“O give thanks to the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.”Jeremiah 33:15“In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David.”Jeremiah 33:16“And this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness.”Jeremiah 35:14“The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, that he commanded his sons not to drink wine, are performed.”
